I'm trying out Daylite and am extremely impressed.

As a final test of excellence, I'm trying to send out nearly 100 merged emails through Mail.app. But while the Letter Template editor supports rich text, the formatting is always lost when I get to Mail.app (and also if I try to send it directly with the "Email right away" merge action.

If there is a way to do this I'm in heaven.

Hello David,
So glad that you're enjoying Daylite! My experience is that when you send formatted email from an external app (like FileMaker, Daylite) to Mail, the formatting is lost on the Mail side. So to do formatted bulk emails, you'd probably be better off exporting your Daylite contacts to a bulk email program when you want to do a big marketing/newletter/etc project. This is the way that I've done my newsletter email for many years. I use MaxBulk Mailer, but I haven't investigated bulk programs in years so there could very likely be a better one out there.

Hope this helps,
Cynthia

Thanks a bunch Cynthia, I'll investigate that.
